My BLOG about my journey into the invisible world of ultraviolet UV photography, simulated bee, butterfly and animal vision photography and the special lenses, filters and lighting needed to make it work - also in HD video + 3D stereo.

Today more about UV videos, here shots from Hermannshof park of Zinnia flowers from Mexico (I published about them here earlier). These flowers exhibit a very prominent and very deep into UV reaching bullseye pattern, here represented by green - yellow colors corresponding to an about 340 - 360nm UV reflection (cf my false color UV palette), which gets nicely visible in this HDTV video.

Today more about UV videos, here shots from Hermannshof park of a foraging bee on a Zinnia flower from Mexico (I published about them here earlier. This flower exhibits a very prominent and deep into UV reaching bullseye pattern with some grayish reflection, corresponding to an about 370nm UV reflection (cf my standardized false UV color palette), which gets nicely visible in this HDTV video.

Today more about UV videos, again using a Rudbeckia fulgida flower, but this time with two guests, an inspecting fly and a foraging Bumble Bee. This flower exhibit a very prominent UV bullseye pattern, which gets nicely visible in this HDTV video; before I had shown UV video snippets in May 2009 as a preparation for the filming of BBC's "Richard Hammonds Invisible Worlds".
